Here's a beautiful timelapse video of an endangered, uniquely significant red pine forest in Ontario. The Ontario government has just renewed the mining licenses for the territory around it:
Wolf Lake is surrounded by the largest ancient red pine forest in the world – an endangered ecosystem that remains in only 1.2% of its former extent.
The government of Ontario promised protect the ancient forest, but 13 years later it is still open to destructive mining and mineral exploration.
